Figure 4

After MGC-803 was administered for 24 h, the levels of (a) EMT (E-cadherin, N-cadherin, and vimentin) and (b) TGF-β/Smad pathway (TGF-β, Smad2, Smad3, Twist, Snail, and Slug) related proteins were determined by western blot. (c-d) The protein expression in the transplanted tumor about EMT (E-cadherin, N-cadherin, and vimentin) and TGF-β/Smad pathway (TGF-β, Smad2, Smad3, Snail, Slug, and Twist). β-Actin was taken as a loading control.
